Chapter 1230: Grab the Time (Part 2) (Add 1 for the Alliance Leader Yu Yuanchuyu)(1/2)
Since mid-April, there have been many ordinary warships in Shicheng area, almost filling the river.
More than 300 Liang soldiers who retreated to the Shazhou in the Yangtze River in the early part of the month have been captured by the Jiangzhou Navy. Now they have built camps on it, focusing on guarding the direction of Ankou.
However, as Lipu on April 15th, the Hengjiang Ferry was lost one after another, some Jin army ships were drawn to prevent the Liang army from crossing the river, and they were exhausted.
Under such a broad context, on April 18, more than 2,000 soldiers from the camp successfully climbed to the south bank, located in the western border of Chungu County (now Tongling area).
There is no ferry here, and the river bank has not been cleaned up well. There are many reeds, shrubs, and weeds.
The silt and sand brought by the Yangtze River accumulate here, forming sandbanks on and underwater.
In addition, there are many tidal flats that are not on the water surface when the tide is high and exposed when the tide is low. The landing conditions are ten thousand different. It takes a long time to drag the equipment and military funds to the ashore, but no one comes to stop them.
This so-called Jiangfang is already useless.
On the 19th, Yang Qin brought almost all his troops here and met with the newly landed people. There were 4,300 people, one by one, and nearly two hundred wounded soldiers. The patient remained in Shicheng.
On the way, he kept receiving news that the Shen family of Wukang and Yu Tan had a great battle and were defeated, but Liu Chao then rushed over, defeated the Shen family, seized the Great Wall, and Wu Cheng.
The Zhou family is still in Yangxian. The city has been besieged for two or three months. I don’t know how long it will last. At present, the soldiers of Wujun and Kuaiji are besieging them.
Liu Kun seemed to be so angry that he fell ill, and it was not long since he had been doing it.
There is also another surprising news: Sun Song, Lou Guochang and others broke through and ran to Wuxing.
There were constant interceptions along the way, and Lou Guochang was separated from Moling forever, captured by the villagers, and killed as a thief.
I heard that he was so sick that he could not move, so he only had a few followers around him, all of whom died.
Shi Zhen was captured from Yangxian north and said that he was Shi Guipin's relatives and begged for surrender. Liu Chao ordered him to be beheaded.
Sun Song, Zhang Qin, Qian Feng and other dozens of wolf foxes rushed to Wuxing and took them in for Shen.
Yang Qin was deeply moved when he heard this, it was really tragic.
It is not something that ordinary people can do if the lonely army goes deep behind enemy lines. But Jincheng has been struggling for two months and attracted countless bandits.
It is an indisputable fact that he killed thousands of people in front and behind and was angry at Liu Kun.
If it weren't for them, Zhao Yin's troops might have gone south long ago. Will the Zhou and Shen dare to do anything?
After the war, the emperor will give them generous rewards, and even their descendants may be admitted to the palace and study and practice martial arts with the princes.
On April 23, after a long journey, they saw the endless camps on the east horizon from afar.
Yang Qin ordered camping on the spot and making equipment.
*******
After nightfall, it was already the second round of drums.
The crescent moon hangs in the air, and the frogs in the wild gradually disappear, as if these little things felt some unusual atmosphere.
The air around is a little wet, which makes people feel a little unpleasant.
Occasionally, the south wind blows, which also brings a corruption and fishy smell.
Yang Qin put on his armor and climbed onto a creaking platform.
The Jin army camp was brightly lit.
Of course, they discovered their own existence. They didn't know whether it was fear or what happened. They did not take advantage of the distance and set foot on the ground and launched an attack. Instead, they guarded the camp and responded to changes in the same way as they remained stable.
But if the enemy doesn't attack, he will attack.
The third drum sounded.
The dark clouds covered the waning moon, and the earth suddenly darkened.
The sound of neat footsteps sounded in the wilderness.
The sound came from all directions, with shadows coming in the night, no one making noise, no one shouting, and only silence and resolute steps.
Night battles are never easy.
The south wind suddenly increased, as if it had blown away the clouds, revealing the true appearance of the bright moon.
The earth suddenly lit up.
Wang Ying climbed up to the platform, and just wiped his eyes, and saw endless military formations arranged in the wilderness ahead. At a rough look, there were thousands of people, but the night was hazy and I couldn't see how many people were in the darkness in the distance, and I was afraid there were tens of thousands of people?
A shout sounded from a camp in the west, and even those who do not understand military can hear the tension and panic contained therein.
They fought with Liang Ren!
The dark army began to move forward.
The sound of drums replaced the croaking of frogs, and the sound of horns covered the sound of river flowing.
The silent army formation was like a mountain, pressing towards them with great momentum.
Wang Ying widened his eyes.
Under the moonlight, the armor shines with silver light, and the spear stands like a towering tree.
Large shields were raised high on their chests, and the black shield covered their faces and also hid murderous intent.
Apart from rustling steps, there is no noise or any messiness, which makes people wonder if they are living people!
Wang Ying's palm was sweating slightly, and his expression became serious.
The military formation opposite suddenly stopped.
There were a few flames in the deepest night in the west, and the rumbling drum sounds came out of the fire and spread throughout the earth.
The military formation broke the silence.
From left to right, the drums responded continuously, and for a moment, the sound of commands and instruments collided continuously.
When the drum sound of the last square formation stopped, the wilderness returned to peace, and there was no sound, as if nothing had happened, but the military formation became more rigorous and the murderous intent became more awesome.
The footsteps sounded again.
Mountain-like military formations are like beasts in the dark, approaching step by step, revealing their fangs step by step.
The sound of winding the strings sounded on the village wall, and a thick arrow was pushed up.
"Huh!" The first crossbow arrow shot out.
"Huh! Huh!" Then there is the second and the third one.
The night suddenly darkened, and there was a sensation of collision sound in the darkness.
Ruthless footsteps kept sounding.
When the moon climbed to the top of the dark clouds again, Wang Ying could not believe his eyes. The mountain-like military formation was almost intact and had no changes.
The pace of the spear jungle accelerated, and Wang Ying found that he felt a little far away from them.
"Win the string! Hurry up and shoot again!" He roared in his heart.
But the sergeant who operated the powerful crossbow didn't know whether he was nervous or what he was doing, and he was too slow!
The army marched forward quickly, constantly narrowing the distance with the camp.
Their long spear had been raised forward and their step bow had been removed from their waists, and their shield was gradually lifted up to the top.
"Huh! Huh!" As if hearing the call in Wang Ying's heart, the powerful crossbow on the village wall launched the second round of launch.
Under the bright moonlight, the military formation was damaged hugely, like bricks and stones collapsing down from the city wall, and a large area fell down in a sensation.
Wang Ying was about to laugh, but his smile froze on his face.
The soldiers in the back row took two steps to make up, and the formation was as good as before, without any abnormality.
There was a noise on the village wall, and there were vague shouts.
After a while, a group of people opened the camp gate and rushed out in line. They stood in a row outside the village wall, holding individual crossbows, and fired together.
Wang Ying stared at the front, but saw another "masonry" falling from the Liang army formation.
Many soldiers fell to the ground as they walked, and their formation instantly became as incomplete as dogs.
But soon, another sergeant in the back row came up silently and continued to move forward.
The formation is as old as before!
Wang Ying subconsciously swallowed.
The army was still advancing, as if nothing could stop them.
And just as the general soldiers and crossbowmen who were out of the camp were busy loading, the sound of desolate horns sounded from the west.
The Liang army formations all stopped.
Countless people bent down, placed their spears at their feet, then picked up their bows and arrows, and raised them under the moonlight, which was spectacular for a moment.
"Song!" A short horn sound rang out.
"Buzz!" The overwhelming arrows flew into the sky. When they landed, few Jin army crossbowmen were still standing.
The drum sounded.
Liang army bowed their waists together, picked up the spear and continued to move forward.
To be continued...
